This incident will inevitably bring about a series of impacts. Some impacts will take a long time to appear, and some impacts will reveal clues.

The Jewish forces in Hollywood are united again, just like Spielberg's "Schindler's List" was treated at the beginning. Next year's Oscar will definitely make a strong call.

No one can guarantee that one person will win the Oscar statuette, but Natalie is definitely in the leading position, even if the film that will become the opponent has not yet been released.

If Ryan’s public relations is a layer of insurance, then Natalie already has double insurance. If the Coen brothers are also Jewish, Ryan might consider giving up the best actress and hitting the best director. .

Under strict protection, there were no accidents at the premiere. Amidst the protests of Iranians, the film was not only released in North America, but also appeared in other countries with English-speaking friends.

As for the film itself, there is nothing to say. Just look at the reaction of the Iranian government to understand what kind of film it is.

The Iranian government is condemning that the Iranian government wants to ban the screening, the Iranian government wants to counter Hollywood, and the Iranian government interferes in the freedom of speech in the United States...

This is Harvey Weinstein's propaganda strategy for the film. The Iranian government must be dragged down and stepped on.

Even though there are so many disputes surrounding this film, the inherent weakness of "I Grow Up in Iran" is very obvious. It is not easy for a film that reflects foreign culture to succeed in North America, even if many people clamor for the release of this film. , It is just to maintain the concept of freedom of speech in the heart, and may not buy tickets to enter the theater.

Today's radically intensified US-Iranian relationship is undoubtedly the biggest selling point of the film, and it is also one of the few places that can attract the North American public into theaters.

More than 1,600 theaters in the first week. The box office of 21.21 million US dollars can be said to be the biggest limit of this niche film, in addition to allowing Disney Pictures and Miramax's many investors and distributors to recover costs. The biggest advantage is that it will be released with the film. Miramax's stock price, which has been declining, temporarily stabilized and began to climb slowly.

Even after launching such a mighty public opinion war, Ryan and Nicole’s $200 million loss cannot be recovered in a short period of time. Miramax can also be regarded as a serious injury. If it were not for Disney as a backer, It's not that Ryan's foundation provided low-interest loans. The Weinstein brothers are bound to make a big deal.

In particular, "The Torture Room", whose script was exposed by hackers, suffered a huge box office setback after it was released on Halloween.

The film opened in North America with 2,765 theater chains, and only received US$11.59 million in the first week. The production cost of the film was as high as US$65 million. If the subsequent DVD video tape market does not perform well, the two representative figures of niche cult films Quentin Tasino and Robert Rodriguez will meet the most painful failure since their debut.

By the second week, the box office of "The Punishment Room" plummeted to more than 4.6 million U.S. dollars. According to the estimates of Ryan and Miramax, the North American box office of this film was at most more than 20 million U.S. dollars.

Want to recoup the investment is nowhere in sight.

Compared to the North American box office of nearly $50 million earned by "I Grow Up in Iran". "Xing Fang" has undoubtedly demonstrated the negative impact of the hacking incident. Miramax's stock price has fallen again, making Ryan and other shareholders hate Iran even more.

If it is said that Iran was only used to promote the film. After the Iranians moved his cake, Ryan already had a reason to be hostile to Iran.

Perhaps the source of this dispute comes from "Argo", but for capital and business groups, these are not important. The other party has actually harmed their interests. This is the first thing to consider.

"I want to overthrow the Iranian government and get rid of those ayatollahs!"

It seems that the game character controlled by Ryan is regarded as an Iranian, and Taylor flexibly presses the handle to complete the ‘’ in a few clicks. "I want to throw Ahmadinejad into the Persian Gulf to feed the fish!"

"What happened?" The door was pushed open from the outside, and Nicole hugged Sandy into the entertainment room. "Alison, did the Hollywood Record Company hold back your share?"

"No." Taylor dropped the gamepad. He got up and ran to take Sandy and kissed the little guy on the cheek. Then he said, "Last year, Dad transferred his shares in Miramax to my name. This time I also lost. heavy……"

"Sanny..." She touched Sandy's forehead, "I'm going bankrupt, and you won't have money to buy you candy when you grow up."

"sister."

The little guy grabbed her long platinum hair, and Grid smiled, "Ty...Le."

"Oh wow..." Tyler shook off Sandy's little hand and hugged her in a circle. "You are getting smarter and smarter."

"As long as a few more movies succeed."

Turning off the game console, Ryan walked over, "Miramax's stock price will rise back soon, and..."

Putting a finger up, Ryan solemnly warned Taylor, "No matter how you hate the Iranian government, don't talk about what you just said in public. You are a public figure!"

"I understand." Taylor nodded, "I am not a fool like Lindsay Lohan."

Holding Sandy to the thick carpet, Taylor put her in a pile of baby toys and sat cross-legged next to her.

Ryan and Nicole also walked over, and Sandy was their center.

"I heard that all the arms and energy complexes want to do something against Iran."

As soon as Ryan sat down, Taylor talked about the previous topic again, full of gossip, "If they want to push the federal government to launch a new strike, they will definitely need the cooperation of the media. Ryan, you really don’t plan to unite with others. Power, get rid of this nasty Iranian government?"

"My dear." Ryan rolled his eyes helplessly, "You think too much, that's a country! We are just a media group."

"Well..." Tyler stuck out his tongue at Sandy, "Sanny, what should we do if we don't have money to buy toys in the future?"

"father."

I don’t know if the little guy did not understand, he stretched out a little finger to Ryan, “Dad...Dad.

"Our angel obviously knows who is the richest." Nicole clapped her hands, and Sandy crawled up to her, "Mum...mi."

Of course this is a joke, not to mention Scott Swift and the trust fund set up for Taylor by him and Nicole. In this year’s US tour alone, Taylor earned more than $50 million, even if he had to pay taxes and expenses. Other brokerage public relations expenses, that is also a veritable little rich woman.

"When will my movie be released?" Taylor asked suddenly, "Is it really going to the theater?"

"Disney Pictures is editing." Ryan thought for a while and said, "I think it's more appropriate to release DVD discs. Don't enter theaters. Otherwise, the meaning of making money is too obvious. It is also an overdraft for fans, and it is not for your future. There is no benefit."

If Taylor were other Disney idol stars, Ryan would definitely release a film similar to "This Is It" in the previous life, but for a growing pop singer, such a film would not benefit much from entering the theater, and would only overspend the future.

Besides, they are not short of money.

"Then leave it to Disney to run it."

Taylor gave a strange cry and plunged into the pile of toys, causing Sandigger to laugh.

Time slowly moved into November. When "I grew up in Iran" was released for a month, the North American box office slowly climbed to 80 million US dollars. If nothing else, with the help of the free speech wave set off by the Miramax incident , The North American box office of this film is very likely to exceed 100 million U.S. dollars in the end.

As the issuer, Miramax’s stock price has completely stabilized, but it is easy for the stock to fall down, but difficult to rise. Miramax’s market value has shrunk by a full 15% compared to before the hacking incident.

Another film in the incident, "A Farewell", also began to be screened in North America on a small scale in order to obtain Oscar tickets. How to operate an award-winning film, the Weinstein brothers have sufficient ability and experience.

This film, like "I grew up in Iran", has received unanimous praise from the mainstream media in North America. In their propaganda and hype, the two films are definitely works of conscience and morality that reflect the reality of Iran. In other words , Just to understand the status quo of Iranian society, then look at "I Grew Up in Iran" and "A Parting".

On the other hand, the situation in the Persian Gulf is extremely tense. Although the U.S. Navy has not dispatched an aircraft carrier formation, it has several warships on frequent patrols. It is said that there have been several occasions to greet the Iranian Navy almost face to face...

If it were not for the problems of Afghanistan and Iraq, the federal government might really have to do something against Iran.

As for Iran, in addition to tough responses, it continues to clamor for the elimination of Jewish forces in Hollywood and the elimination of Zionist organizations.

The louder this voice the Jewish forces in Hollywood will unite, and the greater the chances of "I Grew Up in Iran" and "A Farewell" to win Oscars.

Similarly, Natalie, who is a standard Jew, will definitely benefit from it.

Although there is still some time before the awards season, Ryan has received a lot of feedback, except for the votes that public relations can get, most of the Jewish judges faintly said that Natalie will be the first choice for the best actress of this year's Oscar.

For those female stars who have worked hard in Hollywood for many years, this seems very unfair, but there is no fairness in this world.

Also, Natalie didn’t say, but Ryan knew something. Mrs. Shelley came to Los Angeles from New York for her daughter. Although the Herschel family was just a standard Jewish middle class, many Jews from Europe were born in Europe. No one can tell what kind of connection exists between the ancestors.

These are all personal connections. Now that Natalie has a bright enough role and resume, external factors are bound to play an important role. (To be continued)
